This has not been one of my better days. Feeling very confined and restless today. It is so beautiful outside today and I wanted to take a long walk. Finally went to bed this afternoon and slept for two hours. Feeling a bit better now. Two more days and I will regain a bit of my freedom to move around.
Jim has been working outside all afternoon. He is scrapping and fixing the outside of a window sill. Wish I could be out with him to help.
I finished knitting the baby blanket last night. I brought some tea towels to work on but they haven’t captured my attention yet. I also have some yarn I can knit into dish rags. Maybe something will call to me later and I can actually get something done today.
Saw something on Facebook today that reminded me Winter Solstice will be here in 33 days. The last 30 days of Solstice can be hard for me as I get closer to the darker parts of myself inside. It isn’t always easy to look within and see those parts of myself I would rather keep hidden. Each year I peel the layer back a bit deeper and allow myself to heal more deeply within. The light starts to return in 33 days! It is about the same time I regain my full mobility. The timing has a wonderful synchronized timing to it for me this year.
Not much foot pan today. The first foot I had done has hurt more last night and today than the other one. So looking forward to being able to take a proper soak in the bath tub Wednesday night and not having to use a caster protection bag. TWO MORE DAYS!
Grateful for 75 degree temperatures today, grateful for naps, and grateful for this time to go within and face my own demons.
Hope you are on the mend from your surgery❤ Sending hugs from Maine.
